The problem with the BE forecast is the huge differences between the polling companies.
It’s not like the polls are even close by normal standards . The big issue is the Labour v Lib Dem vote .0 -

It doesn't match the LibDems 'best result since 1910' ramping or the talk of Conservatives and Labour below 10%.0 -

Mistake (and he does not make many) by Farage adding the word 'the' to the name of the party. People were looking for Brexit at the top end of the paper I think and then saw (easily) UKIP at the bottom0 -
Brexit party would be unlucky to only get 24 seats with 31ish% of the vote !0

I think it'll be dreadful for both major parties. People are treating the whole thing as a second referendum where you have to choose Hard Remain or Hard Leave, and they are counting both Tories and Labour as "don't know", so to be ignored. My sense is that TBP are slightly under expectations and the LDs are well over, though probably not quite enough for first place.
Not sure how much it would carry over to a GE when the subjects are different, but certainly doesn't encourage the big parties to make a dash for the polls.0 -

Could be. If the young , last-minute registered voters, were under-represented in those campaign polls, we could see slightly or considerably better results for the LD's and Greens, or both.0 -

It's a triple-whammy for Labour:
Young left-wingers voting Green, centrist dads voting LD, Lexit dinosaurs voting BXP.
And a double-whammy for the Tories:
Eurosceptics voting BXP, Europhiles voting LD.0 -

Being Gove, he would sort it out by saying May's red lines were not hard enough and therefore he would insist that the Channel had to be widened by 40 miles. He would ignore experts who pointed out this would be damaging and detonate a nuclear bomb in Ashford, which would achieve objective A while causing a whole load of far worse problems.TheScreamingEagles said:

No - they need something like 38% of the vote to win 2 seats - I suspect they won't get that amount as Tyne & Wear / Northumberland will vote very differently to Stockton.

Until Westminster, the media, the general public and nearly all the Tory leavers including those on this site, actually learn and understand how the EU Council, Commission and Parliament works then the drivel of altering any agreement will continue to be promulgated as "truth". The Commission and Council have agreed what the UK leaving agreement will be, it will not change, no matter what idiot the Tories put up as Leader and PM.0

If the Greens were to get more votes than Farage/Lib Dems then they'd be more talked about.0 -

We are reasonably calm as a council area - the last remaining Labour council on Teesside. If it's this bad here I can only imagine the BXP piles in Boro or Pool or Sunderland. And yes, some seats will lean LD like Durham or Newcastle or up in Northumbria. But overall? I can see Labour 3rd across the region quite comfortably0 -

It could be that the Tories have been utterly destroyed in seats like this, though, while holding on to some more affluent voters in the country and places like the south.0 -
My goodness, all this hysteria over who wins and loses, as if it actually means a toss. The UK MEP's of whatever party means absolutely nothing. At worst, they will be removed at the 31st October, at best they will be joining up in some non-descript grouping and be mostly ignored until the next EU election. The UK is now a planetary joke.0

> My goodness, all this hysteria over who wins and loses, as if it actually means a toss. The UK MEP's of whatever party means absolutely nothing. At worst, they will be removed at the 31st October, at best they will be joining up in some non-descript grouping and be mostly ignored until the next EU election. The UK is now a planetary joke.
I don't think this election has much to do with the MEPs, to be honest.0 -

Anecdata for the count here in Abingdon, Oxfordshire - neck and neck between BXP and LD...but a lot of LD momentum with Layla in this neck of the woods, so probably no surprise.
Not sure about turnout but the count finished some time ago and they have to hang around until 10pm...0 -

If Cheshire East shows the Lib Dems and Greens fighting for second and third those votes are coming mainly from Labour with much less going to the BP from them .0
